Eye candy is great, but...

..."older" women rock.

I use quotes so nobody kicks my virtual ass.
(Note: Skip this post if you don't want to read an objectifying, impolitic, ageist, and purely sexual analysis of women by a hormonally overloaded thirty-something dude.)
Why don't my friends believe me when I say that I'm totally into women over 40? Why doesn't Maggie? What's the problem here, people?

Look, I know some really hot twenty-somethings. One friend of mine works as a "fit model," and literally has the archetypical awesome body. And don't get me wrong: she's beautiful. But looking at her feels like a misdemeanor. And as a Dad, I've found that checking out younger women feels increasingly wrong. (Althought that might just be so that I'll feel good about stomping the shit out of anyone who ogles my daughter. Preemptive moralism, you know?)

Besides... these twenty-somethings look like they'll just break. I like real women... with real curves, bodies you can work with, you know?

Sex. Sex, sex, sex. Older women (according to me) have had enough time to figure out what they want, what they don't want, are much more likely to be able to talk about, and act on, their desires.

I guess this all bodes well for Maggie, considering she's turning 40 this year.

Love to all. Even you, Mr. Mehlman.

I'm turning 40 next month, and yes, I know what I want.
Sadly, I don't know how to get it.

I'll be 34 next month and wouldn't go back to 25 for anything! That Maggie is one lucky lady!

ITS said...

The term used on porn websites is "mature". They are "mature", and God bless them... ;)

Lisa said...

You're damn right "experienced" women rock... And really wise men know this. (I hate the term mature... cuz I'm not)

Anne, I'm right there with ya girlfriend.

Lisa said...

and dude... Are you saying older women CAN'T be eye candy... I have a problem with that... ;-)

Mature! Experienced!

Ah, vocabulary entirchment. Thanks kindly.

ITS: As always, you are the teacher.

Lisa: yes. Apologies. I was being unduly divisive. There's a large crossover twixt experienced ladies and eye candy.

Vic: Maggie is /pretty/ lucky. I can be a total dickface. But I'm workin' on it.

Anne: I'd say you're 70% there, then.

:-)

And when the men my age start liking women with curves who don't look like they are going to break, maybe I'll get some.

sigh.

I think you've admitted what a lot of guys feel about 'older' women.

Fiona Kathleen Hogan said...

Same for both sexes, I feel. I cannot wait to turn 40 (only 34 this year). And at the same time, my fave age group for men, for me, is 40 and up!

Old enough to know what you want, young enough to do something about it ;P

Rich, I bow to you! I've noticed you were smooth, but you're suave as hell! Analyzing your blog audience well, you go and throw in these compliments so your ladies here can love you! :) Well done!

Rich | Championable said...

Ah, Shqipo.

You don't have to fake it if you mean it.

I believe that if I am up at 2am catching up on all that I have missed with you, it is official - I'm a little addicted and developing a blog crush. OK, so first it's like, "Hey, I dig men who dig their wives and still know a little flirting is OK." Now with this "older" woman thing - well, let's just say I am 38 AND A HALF and Yay for me. My friends and I have seen this trend and we love it. I get plenty of validation at home, but it's fun to know that other men look at women my age that way. Happy Birthday to Maggie - will there be a big celebration. I can keep a secret!
